We are grateful for health our family and the recovering economy, living in the Temecula Valley, California and the United States of America and this year we are especially grateful to Pechanga for purchasing the Mountain and running granite out of town

I am thankful I live in Temecula. We have a great city despite a few issues. I am thankful there are a few leaders out there who truly have the best interests of the people at heart. Finally I am thankful my beloved country is still a land of relative freedom despite the ever increasing socialist influence in our government. Have a happy and healthy Thanksgiving everybody.

Much like the spirit of Thanksgiving, I am grateful for Pechanga's protection of land important in so many ways having nothing to do with money.

I am so very very THANKFUL to God for Pechanga !!! I was actually thinking I was going to have to move my family, and I was really afraid for the whole city and surrounding areas, that I believe the worry contributed to a stomach disorder. This was a real thing, not any kind of nimby deal, and if someone has the nerve to say that-they are very uneducated. So THANK YOU PECHANGA- for your action and gift. I hope it will change the hearts and souls of Temecula, and all neighboring cities. I am most thankful too that I have a healthy family, and this great gift from Pechanga will help everyone's family stay that way!

Cheri,
Due to my severe allergies, I was also anticipating on moving if the quarry had manifested. Again, thanks to Pechanga as well as SOS, the city counsel, Stone and Paul Jacobs.......I am positive that Granite read of his threat to initiate an investigation. All mentioned above contributed to the stopping of this horiffic project.

I am thankful to be born and live on planet earth, through random chance.
And I am only interested in parts of eath, where sunshine warms the days and people speak Engliah. Living in the USA is interesting ,but only in certain regions, like So Cal. I have absoutely no desire or interest to live in Alabama, Mississippi. .New England etc.,or many of the other freaky states in the US. I would be just as happy living on the West Coast of Australia in say the city of Perth. It's too bad tha my country the US, is world's largest consumer of cocaine (shipped from Colombia through Mexico and the Caribbean), Colombian heroin, and Mexican heroin and marijuana; And a major consumer of ecstasy and Mexican methamphetamine; minor consumer of high-quality Southeast Asian heroin; Also an illicit producer of cannabis, marijuana, depressants, stimulants, hallucinogens, and methamphetamine; not forgetting a money-laundering center.. Its called "supply -n-demand" in a Capitalst-Consumer place.

I am thankful that Pechanga brought Temecula the best present ever by protecting our local beautiful mountain.

Was that the grand finale ? Cellarz93 is closed now. So sad, a wonderful gem in the Valley.

All comes down to getting the "GOLD" Balanced right in the big City Hall right? We areRead More broke we are broke! We have how many more million dollar residents, ranches, farms who pay taxes, how many more business's, triple, quadruple, on and on that pay taxes, and some very large business's at that for YEARS. Yet Murietta and Menifee with just the few they have can manage to not only put in side walks, AND ALSO ACTULLY Listen their residents, instead of call them names like Paul has been, concerns and respond to them. Hell we are just now getting some attention to our driving issues with running red lights, speeding, not stopping at stop signs, driving drunk, high, or wreeklessly causing deaths and serious injuries to walkers, bike riders, skate board, scooter riders, wheelchairs, motor bike riders, and other cars. But how many lives were lost or severly disabled until we just now the last 2 weeks have been giving traffic details for different areas, cell phone details, etc. Lucky to get some sidewalks finished in 10 years if someone doesnt figure out where our "Gold" is we all pay in. And stop calling names people at the City meetings to Paul or anyone else trying to get our City to do what its there for. By the time someone in your own family is killed they will be laughing at you for standing up asking for sidewalks right? Just like on the "Patch" comment areas, always calling names instead of sticking with your fellow Temeculites and getting us something DONE! Before we loose more lives
